After-School Program in Novi: More Than Supervision — It’s a Complete Experience

When the school bell rings in Novi, where does your child go? Many families choose basic after school care — a safe place until parents finish work. But what if those hours could be transformed into something more?

At iMA Sports Novi, our After-School Program is not daycare, not babysitting — it’s a complete experience. With free daily pickup from Novi elementary schools, structured martial arts classes, sports, dance, tumbling, and homework support, we turn after school hours into growth time.


🏫 What Your Child Gets Every Day

Our program is designed to keep kids active, focused, and supported:

  • Free daily school pickup from local Novi elementary schools: Deerfield, Novi Woods, Orchard Hills, Parkview, and Village Oaks.

  • Martial arts training that teaches discipline, respect, and confidence while developing bully-proof skills.

  • Dance & tumbling classes that build agility and coordination.

  • Sports drills & games (indoor & outdoor) for fun and fitness.

  • Homework support in a safe, structured environment.

This isn’t just “watching kids until parents arrive.” It’s daily reinforcement of skills that help children succeed in school, sports, and life.


🥋 Why Martial Arts Makes the Difference

Martial arts is the foundation of our program because it builds character and life skills:

  • Focus to finish homework and pay attention in class.

  • Respect for parents, teachers, and peers.

  • Confidence to stand up to bullies and challenges.

  • Resilience to try again when things get tough.

These lessons stay with kids long after class ends.


🆚 CARE vs. iMA After School Program

Many Novi families are familiar with CARE, the district’s basic after school service. While CARE provides supervision, our program goes further:
